When Qiu Yelan returned to Beique Hall, it was already dusk. Empress Jiang offered a family dinner. Shortly after the dinner started, only Maid Lin was kept in the hall to serve wines. Qiu Yelan took the moment and said everything that Empress Dowager Ye had just told.
After hearing it, Empress's expression changed abruptly, "According to what she said, all the royalties are suspects, aren't they?"
Qiu Yelan replied respectfully, "I'm not wise enough to make any judgment."
"It's ok. Since Empress Dowager Ye told you this, you should know her demeanor. Tell me, what do you think of what she said?" Empress Jiang contemplated and said, "Is it true or not?"
"I've never met Empress Dowager Ye before. How can I judge the truth of her speech so arrogantly?" Qiu Yelan clarified that she was unfamiliar to Empress Dowager Ye, and then she continued, "But I think what Empress Dowager Ye did was for Duanrou. Duanrou is the only child of the th
Marquess Qin only took one look at him and then waved his hand to let the servants withdraw. After that, Marquess Qin stroked his beard, smiled, and asked, "Has your daughter-in-law been wronged in the palace?"Jiang Yashuang was not surprised that his grandfather was right. After saluting him, Jiang Yashuang replied faintly, "I know that both my grandmother and my aunt love me, but the things in the backyard are like drinking water that one knows hot and cold. If too many people care about it, it will be easy to get into trouble. Grandfather, please help me.""Love you?" Marquess Qin said lazily, "Just a little... They care more about themselves, don't they?"Jiang Yashuang didn't say anything.Marquess Qin said with a smile, "I won't take care of this. Cultivate your mind, take family responsibilities, learn how to govern the country, and preserve peace and order. You know how much I hope for you. If I have to deal with such a sm
Jiang Yashuang, who was called back in a hurry, looked at his weeping sister and roaring wife. It took him a long time to find the opportunity to speak, "Brother's injury is not so bad. This is the news sent the day before yesterday. It's absolutely true.""It was delivered the day before yesterday." If it weren't for Jiang Qizheng, Qiu Yelan really wanted to kick him. She said, "If I didn't know that my brother almost lost his life, you wouldn't tell me until my brother came back."Originally, they had been in a cold war over the matter of Niguang these days. Now because Jiang Yashuang concealed such important news about Qiu Jinglan's life and death, Qiu Yelan was going crazy."I was afraid you would be like this if you knew it." Jiang Yashuang sighed, "Shazhou is so far away. Even if you knew your brother was in danger, you should just be worried. When my brother left, he repeatedly told me that I must not tell you anything bad, lest you worr
According to the contact information that Empress Dowager Ye provided, Qiu Yelan soon got in touch with Empress Dowager Ye's, or maybe the Ye Family's, even the former crown prince's only group of secret pawns left in Jing City.Emperor had taken the crown for more than thirty years. Even the youngest pawn was old enough to be a grandfather. Some of them already died of old age. Prince Qiyang was mentally challenged. Princess Qiyang was from the Jiang Family. County Princess was too young and didn't know much about scheming and plotting. The only person who could use them was Empress Dowager Ye who was basically locked up for thirty years. Even so, they were still willing to do her bidding. This truly showed their loyalty!Empress Dowager Ye gave them to Qiu Yelan in exchange for her taking care of County Princess Duanrou as well as she could, "This is why I insist on seeing you. I have forced the Empress to swear on Princess Yongfu's life that she wouldn't
Just when Empress Dowager's party finally had a win, Marquess Qin who was resting his eyes quietly said, "Everyone knows Western Army is an elite troop. You can't blame it all on the guards of the mausoleum!"Cao Zizhong and others weren't so bright. Otherwise, they wouldn't be sent to guard the mausoleum. But when it came to their lives and their families, people would be brighter than usual. Hearing this, they immediately admitted, "Marquess Qin really knows better! The Western Army was indeed brave and strong. We're no match to its soldiers!"After he said that, the whole room burst into an uproar.Qiu Dian's face turned red. For a job like guarding the mausoleum, if they did well, they wouldn't get rewarded. But if accidents happened, like this one, they wouldn't end well. Therefore, anyone with some connections or backgrounds would try their best to avoid this job. Those who had to do this were without either backgrounds or abilities. Even
Ruan Ciyi passed out and then woke up, which happened repeatedly for multiple times. Qiu Yelan didn't know any medicine. But looking at the serious expression on the face of the doctor who was hurriedly brought here, she knew the situation was dire. Luckily, after Ruan Ciyi got divorced, Qiu Jinglan kept her around and nourished her body for a couple of years. At least, she was not too weak.If this had happened when she just came back to Jing City, she probably wouldn't be able to survive!This showed the very strong feelings she had on the matter that the family cemetery was dug!In fact, Qiu Yelan was going crazy in her mind. She didn't think about Empress Dowager Ye at first. But when she received the news on her way to the Li Family that the thief, who was killed by the guard, was a bodyguard of Marquess Zhang's Mansion, she immediately realized it was Empress Dowager Ye! If she couldn't realize it, she wouldn't survive in the Jiang Family
The family cemetery of Kuang Shihan and his father was dug up and the Empress Dowager's party won't ignore such a big thing. However, the Jiang Family deliberately obstructed them, so they were late. When Princess Changping arrived with empress's decree against wind and snow, the coffin was already exposed in the sun.Seeing all this, Princess Changping almost got mad. She said, "You people! How dare you do this? It's going to last forever, isn't it? "To be honest, Princess Changping had no deep feelings for her husband's family, let alone her husband Kuang Qingwu. After all, her marriage was not only a political creation. Her husband, Kuang Qingwu, had ever promised a marriage with Commandery Princess Ningtai. Even if Kuang Qingwu later ruined that Commandery Princess to show his determination, no intelligent woman would trust this kind of a husband.Besides her feelings, she had her own position to stick to. Afterall, the princess was the da
When Qiu Yelan and her husband racked their brains to think about what Qiu Feng was thinking about, in the Imperial City, Ganli Palace…Suddenly, the door of the hall opened, as the wind rolled snow in, blowing the curtain away and showing the deepest luxuriant tent.Empress Dowager Ye opened her eyes and was not surprised to see that Maid Lin came in slowly with an ebony lacquer plate. She said, "It's time for you to put a stop to your life.""Finally, will it end?" Empress Dowager Ye patted the hand of the only old palace lady beside her. Unlike the old palace lady with a pale face, the Empress Dowager was very calm at the moment. She motioned the old palace lady to help her sit up. She took the poisoned wine from the plate held high by Maid Lin who knelt down to her and looked at it. She was ready to drink it without hesitation. But when her lips touched the wine, she suddenly stopped and smiled at Maid Lin who was frowning, "Don't worry. I'
For an elder, treating young people well was nothing more than rewarding and praising them for being good.Compared with Qiu Yelan’s dowry, Empress and Marquess Qin could hardly give a gift for her kindness because of which she would be grateful to them.After all, both the Ruan Family and the Qiu Family got rich in the same period as Darui Royal Family.Qiu Jinglan was also very good to his young sister for fear that she hardly had so many things, and most crucially, Qiu Yelan didn't love property and treasures at all.If they wanted to compliment her on her obedience... However, Qiu Yelan hid in the room these two days, giving the excuse that she needed to rest because of the extreme anger in her heart, so as to avoid going to help the third branch check the accounts.As the elders, they couldn't get into her inner room, let alone praise her. Even if they could really ignore their own identities and authoritie
